Real Sociedad secured the signing of Héctor Fort, a 20-year-old right-back, in a permanent transfer from Barcelona. The young defender signed a contract with the Basque club until 2031.
Barcelona sold 60% of the player's economic rights for approximately 8 million euros. This operation represents another departure of young talent from the Catalan club.
Fort, who came through Barcelona's youth academy, leaves the club after accumulating experience with the first team. The transfer allows the player to have more opportunities to play regularly.
Real Sociedad bet on the young full-back as reinforcement for their defense, closing a deal that involves a significant amount for a player of his age.
